I thought I read about some other ones...I will see if I can dig the article up on them and pass them along.
Let me know what you find. Right now I am using Quicken XG and absolutely love it. I would like to find something Open source that will access those files as well.

I'm trying to find some open source accounting/tax software. The problem I have is that I don't know much about the subject yet so I don't know how to tell from the "feature lists" of the software I found if it can do what I am looking for. :) Before I go and install every single open source tax/accounting package known to man, I thought I would ask any of you guys that might run your own business.
It's nothing big, no business license, I'm not incorporated, I'll just be registering a trademark. I charge clients a per hour rate but I need to set some of the income aside so I make sure I have enough to pay my income tax at the end of the year, however since the income tax rate is dependent on what tax bracket you are in, I don't know how to go about doing that and I'm not willing to pay an accountant (I don't make enough money to warrant it yet :)
Try SQL-Ledger at http://www.sql-ledger.com/. It works alright for me when I get around to doing the accounting ;-).
Does anyone know of any OSS software that can do that? My preferences would be:
1) Something web-based, PHP or Perl with MySQL or PostgreSQL backend 2) Something QT/KDE based if there isn't anything web-based out there 3) Something GTK/Gnome based if there isn't anything QT/KDE based out there
Sql-Ledger is perl/postgres/apache based, and is reasonably easy to setup. Just follow the install instructions.
